This study compared the outcomes of sinus laser therapy (SiLaT) and sinus lay open in the management of sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (SPND). The results showed that sinus lay open had a higher success rate, while SiLaT had a shorter healing time, better overall cosmetic outcome, and higher quality of life scores after surgery.
Aim There is no standard method for the management of sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (SPND); however, surgery remains the gold standard treatment. Wide surgical excision of the sinus is the traditional surgical treatment of SPND, yet it is associated with extended healing time and delayed recovery. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of sinus laser therapy (SiLaT) and sinus lay open in the management of SPND. Methods Patients with SPND who were treated with SiLaT or lay open were retrospectively reviewed. The main outcome measures were the success of surgery in terms of complete healing at 12 months postoperatively, time to complete healing, complications, operation time and quality of life (QoL). Results A total of 139 patients with a mean age of 25 years were included to the study. Sixty-two patients underwent SiLaT and 77 underwent lay open. Six patients experienced recurrence after SiLaT while there was no recorded recurrence after the lay open technique (P = 0.007). Sinus lay open had a shorter operation time than SiLaT (P < 0.0001). On the other hand, SiLaT was followed by a shorter healing time, lower incidence of delayed wound healing, better cosmetic outcome, and higher QoL scores compared to the lay open group. The complication rates were comparable between the two groups. Conclusion Sinus lay open was associated with better success than SiLaT. On the other hand, SiLaT was associated with quicker healing, better cosmesis, better QoL and longer operation time. The complication rate of the two procedures was comparable.
